Movie- MINAMATA (5.15pm)


July 17, 2021

Based on the book of the same name, the film follows American war photographer W Eugene Smith’s (Johnny Depp). On assignment in 1971 to Japan for Life magazine editor Robert Hayes (Bill Nighy), he chronicled the impacts of mercury poisoning in coastal communities.

This most challenging and important investigation of his career saw him travelling to the small Japanese village of Minamata which had been ravaged by an outbreak of Mercury Poisoning due to gross negligence by Japan’s Chisso Corporation, the government itself, and even the Yakuza.
